Today, Ford can't compete in America

That's a problem they, not me will have to work out.

Businesses have ups and downs like anything else.

If you don't like it here, leave.

"If you don't like it here, leave."

Want to expound on that?

I dare you to come to one of my restaurants, and hire an American-born dishwasher.

Don't you mean you dare me to hire an American born diswasher at 3rd world wages?

What country were your diswashers born in?

I thought that was the whole point of globalisation. Send our jobs to low wage countries so we could all be CEO's instead of lowlife diswashers.

How much would you pay a dishwasher?

The part where your raggedy ass decides that you're the only citizen able to have an opinion, and that your opinion is the only valid one in the country.

In other words, the part where you turn America into a communist nation.

So, if you don't like what I have to say, then move to where people are not free to speak their minds.

And that's what you get for thinking.

You were obviously wrong.

I do have a business but I don't own a restaurant. It would depend on how much I valued clean dishes, how vital clean dishes are to my business and how dependable the diswasher was...how do you put an arbitrary price on that?

I have no idea what you mean by that. You chose to seek me out with 3 unsolicited responses to some of my posts to someone else on 2 seperate threads. I'm only responding to your posts. It seems it didn't turn out like you planned now you're getting pissed off...too bad.

You also seem to have this dour attitude toward American business. That's why I suggest once again, if you don't like it here, leave.

I did, you just don't understand the answer.

You're not having any success at swaying me to your way of thinking. You're going to have to find someone else to pester.

Hey listen.

I commented on something you commented on a couple of threads on a related subject that we're both currently following.

It's kind of how the whole "Internet Forum" thing works.

I believe that government should stay as far away from business as possible, because I know that business must be kept away from government.

If business is electing politicians, how can the idea of politicians actually passing laws to restrict the profitability of business make any damned sense?
